I will have more pictures and updates and I should have a dyno chart and a few videos before this is all over!

Very nice and doing it your self makes for knowing your engine and car better.You will be able to fiqure out small problems yourself with out having to pay somebody to do it for you.

Hopefully the drive goes ok! I just might have to get meth dammit.

The blue one on the left is for the Snow Performance Meth Injection and the one on the right is my Utec map selector switch.

Here is a very informative link on how to do this. https://my350z.com/forum/engine-drivetrain-and-forced-induction-diy/337100-how-to-install-a-walbro-gss342.html
This was a very good day
So the car ended up making 330whp on the Heartbreaker. This is about what I expected. I was surprised to find out that the meth injection didn't add much power if any. Sharif did say it smoothed things out and I observed no heat soak even after 15 dyno runs. I figure if anything this is more of a safety precaution and will make the car run great even on those 90+ degree days this summer. Overall this was a very safe / conservative tune and I am very happy with it. After driving the car home and beating on it over the weekend it seems to be rock solid and I expect to have many joy filled miles on this setup. The power is very linear and really pulls on the top end and the sounds the Vortech makes are really addictive too! I can't Thank Sharif and everyone enough at Forged for everything. Their service and the quality of my tune was over the top. I met some cool people while I was there that day too (Trent). The only thing I regret is that I didn't plan a whole weekend down there so I could of partied with you guys Friday night! I hope the thread has been enjoyable and can give some ideas to you guys. I will follow up with some videos and some numbers once I get her to the drag strip!

Wow....great write up. I am embarassed to say this is the first time I have seen this thread. Just havent had as much time to scan the forums lately. But nice work, nice pics too!!! There is probably another 10-20whp there after you ditch the stock exhaust.

Bryan! Bryan! Bryan!
I'm so happy my setup is getting good use now. 330whp on a DD is nothing to sneeze at. Have fun man! Now, hurry up and finish my baby Sharif!! LOL.
Edit: just noticed... stock exhaust?!?! sleeper.
